PPP Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Not quite shooting related, some ground near me has had Rabbits left in piece, they aren’t on crops just non agricultural grass so no one minds them and they are quite nice to watch. However they have succumbed to Myxy in a big way having inky just bounced back. I assume it’s best to cull them to put them out of their misery and hope the next batch are more resistant.. Dont want anything to suffer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbower Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Its spread by the carrier , contacting uninfected rabbits and passing on the virus. A Cull is the ethical thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeon Shredder. Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Terrible indiscriminate disease that is spread by the infected rabbit or fleas/mosquitos that have been feeding on the rabbits blood, an even stronger strain calicvirus introduced in Australia in the late 90's. The only thing is to cull any infected that you find out of sympathy, you're not going to stop the spread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
